Refunds

Students who receive financial aid in excess of their bill will be issued a refund check in September and/or January. This check will only be issued after the funds have been received by the College and the student's enrollment has been confirmed, usually the third Friday of the semester. You may also enroll in Electronic Funds Transfer to have these funds sent directly to your bank account.

Proceeds from parent loans that exceed the cost of tuition, dorm, meals and other fees, will be refunded to the parent borrower. All other proceeds will be issued to the student. A refund check will not be issued for accounts with payment plans for Tuition Management Systems or deferred work-study payments since these represent outstanding balances.

Checks are available for pickup at the office in Perry Hall:

1:00 to 5:00 PM on Friday

8:30 to 5:00 the next Monday

8:30 to 3:00 PM on Tuesday

Identification is required to release a refund check.

Checks not picked up by Tuesday will be mailed to the billing address of the student. Please verify and update your address as necessary through the Web Advisor portal.

To enroll in Electronic Funds Transfer: Please log into WebAdvisor and click the "Students" menu and enter your banking information via the sub-menu, "e-Checks". Once enrolled you will receive an email with information about the amount and date of the refund, whenever one is issued to you. If you have questions or concerns about this process, please contact esc@champlain.edu or call (802) 860-2777.

*Study Abroad students must also complete enrollment verification through Champlain College's International Office before a refund check can be mailed to the home address.
